I just got a call about a Pepsi Vendorlator 88 that is complete and runs. The only problem is some rust on the lower door. The guy only wants $475 is it worth it. I don't know much about these so any info would help.

The coin mechanism is the same as the Vendo 81 large coin door. I know you have a friend in need of one. This machine will vend cans and looks awesome blue with a white top and red embossed letters. He's "asking" $475 ? You know that means $400.00 !!! Jeff's book lists average value at $850. Go for it! Glad these ads are digging out some cool machines.... '>

Hi
I wish there was someone around the corner from me (or even the other end of the country) selling that. I'd grab his arm off. Both arms.
I've found a Cavalier on Ebay.co.uk but he wants £800.00 (roughly $1600.00)
So, for the time being I can only dream. You lucky, lucky people.
Dave

Well I just got back from picking up the vendorlator 88. It is a nice complete machine. It has some serious rust problems on the bottom but I don't think it is too big of a deal. I ended up getting it for $350. What a deal. I really like this machine. It will look great blue and white. This pic is at the guys house as I haven't enev got it out of the back of my truck yet.

Very nice! The VMC 88 in the Soda Machines Section is one I did a few years back in the "white top". Although not correct, I like the "white top" as opposed to the all blue paint scheme.

I do too. I tink that is the way this one will look like in a few months. You don't happen to still know the blue paint code do you?

Hi Josh
as a complete novice I was wondering how you would go about restoring your new find and what sort of money would need to be invested to get it into tip top condition. Do you do the work yourself or do you send it out??
Cheers
Dave
